Fantastic Stay and Great Hosts!

helpful hosts comfy beds super clean room spacious bathroom

The hosts were lovely and helpful. They couldn't do enough for us. The beds were very comfy and the room was spotlessly clean. I liked that there were loads of sockets and plenty of wardrobe space. The spacious bathroom also had shelves and hooks.

The parking was not the most convenient. It's a very minor issue though.

Rooms

9/10

The family room included a comfortable double bed with a nice duvet. There was a TV, a kettle, tea, and coffee. Everything was working well, and the room was big.

I appreciated the safe parking space at the front of the hotel. The hotel is an easy ten minute walk from the tower. It is also close to most attractions.

Dining

8/10

The hotel doesn't have meals or a bar. But that was fine for me. There are plenty of options nearby.

Service

10/10

The owner was friendly and helpful. He posted my rings back to me. He agreed to post them the same day I called, which I found very kind.
